Personality[]
As Kon, she is childish, as befitting her appearance, but becomes one of the most mature women in the series while in her Hishamaru form. Regardless, her loyalty to her master is unparalleled.
Background[]
Hishamaru is one of Yakou's powerful legendary familiars who were constantly at his side and renowned enough to gain a military rank in the Japanese Army during World War II. She was said to have disappeared shortly after her master's death, but in reality, she kept on waiting for his reincarnation's birth. Kakugyouki considers her more loyal to Yakou than he is.

Spells[]
- Chant of Divine Words
Abilities[]
- Foxfire: As Kon, she can conjure blue flames to use against her enemies, although the strength is dependent on how much energy she has available. When her seals are broken and she has access to greater amounts, she can conjure a massive amount of flames with ease.
- Levitation: She can float in mid-air.
- Swordsmanship: She possesses Kachiwari, a wakizashi, that she can use in battle.
- Stealth: She can dissipate her physical body and meld her presence in with the surrounding aura, allowing her near-perfect stealth in spirit-form. Even a sight-seer can only make her out when she talks, due to the aura fluctuating.
- Healing: She is capable of healing wounds, as demonstrated by her taking care of Harutora's slashed-out eye.
